Riblets Nano

[Riblet]

So my wife is starting nursing school full time, that means one less pay check for two years. So I'm going to shutdown my 180 gallon reef and setup a Nano reef to keep a few of my fish and coral.

I had John from AA build me a 24"x18"x18 tank with a sump built in to the back 5" of the tank.

Dope Nano..... that's the same tank size as the sump he made for my 150g. Looking forward to see it wet.

I'm going to try and do something little different with this tank.

It's 24"wX18"dX18"h 1/2" acrylic with eurobrace on the display side only, and a 5" wide sump in the back with a overflow/skimmer section then it goes to a fuge section that overflows in to a return pump section. I paid $350 and John dropped off locally for me.

Yep we're going to go again, let us know when your thinking of going.
I got water in it and put some live sand and Dr Tim's, to get it cycled. I'm
Going to make a basket so i can put some reef rubble from my reef, and a chemi-pure bag
In the refugium section. Had an extra mp10 from the shop tank I take care of, So it's perfect for this tank. I'm going to try something a little different with this nano tank.

Water Cleared up and a seed rock added.

Those arches are cool, your fish are gonna have fun in there. Cool sand, too...

Made a removable media/reef rubble basket. I filled 3/4 with reef rubble from my reef tank, and made another section for carbon/gfo and some filter floss.

Liking the media basket, it looks sexy and clean.
